"What have they ever done for us?"

"The wine. That's something we'd really miss."

"Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the cellar..."

Welcome to one wine world according to RMJ: a random mix of succulent wine tasting & travel features, winery profiles small and large, 'wines of the moment', conversations with winemakers and atmospheric regional guides; all stamped by my take on planet vino and some of the people who populate it. Check out my extensive 'wine words' pages, 'post archive' and A to Z lists of featured producers, countries and regions; all highlighted below revealing hundreds of shorts, articles and columns, recent and past, published in/on various magazines and websites. But most of the material you'll find here is exclusive to WineWriting.com...And French Mediterranean Wine, the "mostly south of France" (but far from all) themed part of the blog oozing with opinions, wines, people, places and vine-scapes from across the Roussillon, Languedoc, Southwest, Bordeaux, Burgundy, Rhône Valley, Provence, French Riviera, Corsica, Alsace, Loire Valley and Champagne. These include many organic, biodynamic and 'natural' wine producers, but certainly not exclusively.It goes without saying that wine reviews, words and images on this site/blog are destined for those of legal drinking age only, whatever that is in your part of the world. Richard Mark James, via WineWriting.com and FrenchMedWine.com, fully endorses sensible consumption of alcohol, especially with good food and company. Lecture over.
